Slim Fast Diet!
Some time in the past couple months I have packed on a extra 10 pounds to my already over weight self. I was always thin as a child and even in my early teenage years but it seems like after I got out of High School my wonderful metabolisuim slowed and I started gaining weight little by little. I could blame it on having a baby but I went down to my pregnancy weight very quickly. Actually during my first trimester I lost weight and looked quite nice until I turned to the side and my belly started popping out.
But no my extra weight has to do with eating late at night, having mini pizzas for lunch everyday for over month, chocolate hostesses cupcakes and a slew of other bad eating habits. In January I went off pop it was very hard I was addicted to Pepsi in the wrost way. I drank no water at all! I dropped 8 pounds and then I started drinking only sprite or the clear pops. After sometime off being off all pops. Well I gained it all back plus some and I'm saying enough is enough it's time to get this weight off!
My clothes that were lose in the spring are now too tight, I can barley bend down because I can feel the extra weight in my legs. Like when I had retained a ton of water while pregnant.
So I decided the other day to cut all pop and juices out and only drink water. But to go even father I planned on getting Slim Fast and replacing one meal a day with it. Well after I got the cans which are not cheap by they way 10 bucks for 12 cans. I saw they have a new plan. It's called 3.2.1 You replace 2 meals a day with a shake of a meal bar have 3 snacks a day and eat one sensible meal.
I logged onto the site and I liked what I found. They have the water in take log they have meal plans for you list all the different snacks you can eat which are just not there snack bars and you can track your progress and all that. So starting tomorrow I am going on the Slim Fast diet. It's going to be hard and slow going and I think most of all the amount of money it will cost will be challenging but I need to get this extra weight off that I put on and then get down to a weight I'd like to be. Wish me luck!

Just be careful--Slim Fast has a lot of dairy and it can irritate your IBS.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a dairy intolrance. I was checked for it and I'm no where near having even a little bit!
